The Retreats
"Certainly, travel is more than the seeing of sights;
it is a change that goes on, deep and permanent, in the ideas of living."
— Miriam Beard

These retreats are created for a woman standing at a crossroads… what I call the Time of Enodia — the sacred crossroads of midlife.
It is no accident that you feel restless here. This is the threshold where your choices begin shaping the legacy of your becoming. Our retreats are an intentional pause at that intersection: a space to lay down the maps written by others and choose the path toward your most powerful, authentic self.
This is not a vacation, though it unfolds in breathtaking places, from the lush greens of Ireland to the volcanic shores of Iceland and the vibrant labyrinths of Marrakech. Beauty is part of the initiation. Luxury is present, but the point is transformation.
In a circle of trust, we honor the wisdom you’ve gathered across decades (the triumphs, the heartbreaks, the resilience) and release the stories that no longer fit.
This is courageous self-discovery.
This is the reclamation of authorship.
Before, we say, “I’m stuck. I don’t know what I want anymore.”
After, we know who we are becoming, and walk toward her, unapologetically.
The What…
The time is now.
This is not a dress rehearsal.
It is time to reclaim your story, to write your own legend, not just for your own joy and fulfillment, but for the profound and beautiful legacy you are destined to create for your family, your community, and the world.
Commit to your becoming.
The Why…
Why? There are the reasons we give out loud… we need rest. We long for connection. We just want space to think. All of this is true - but it is not the pulse beneath the surface. Beneath it is something wilder.
Midlife is not a crisis to survive; it is an initiation to walk through. After decades of being what was needed, the old roles loosen and a voice rises: Who am I now?
We’ve been handed a story that aging means diminishment. It is a lie. This season is about ignition. Yet so many women who appear accomplished and “together” are privately starving for something truer. Success has fed the résumé, but not the soul.
Reinvention is sacred, tender work, and it asks for witnesses: women who will sit at the edge of the fire with you and say, I see you. Keep going.
This retreat exists for that crossing, the moment a woman stops living in someone else’s story and begins writing her own.

Inspired by shadow
“There lies truth in the Shadows. In these dark caverns is where we find our true selves - most often at the crossroads of mid-life.”
After serving as a salty sailor in the US Navy for nearly eight years, I studied Design and Art History and have worked for two decades as an editorial photographer and creative director. And - I've written a few books.
But my passion is Sisterhood. With over 30 years of extensive study around spiritualism, mythology and art history, I now work with women/femmes to reconnect to the power of the primordial Goddess.
I have led retreats in both Morocco and Iceland - bringing my unique vision to intimate and inspiring settings.
